Collections

[kingtam2000]

Is there any way to deep copy a collection in VB .Net? For example, to be able to create a copy of a collection with a different reference without having to create a collection and add each item by looping through. I also need to keep the keys in the copying.

Sorry, accidently double-posted, can one of them be deleted?

Try this serialization function, it did work for me for a basic collection:

(ps: edit your double-post to get option to delete it)
